I was out the past two and a half weeks in Shanghai and Taipei and I just got home late last night. This video is a fantastic "welcome home" gift - thank you!

As a side note, I will say it again. Shanghai Disneyland seriously needs a train ride!

Thanks, LB! I intentionally didn't know much about Shanghai Disneyland the first time I went. Saw their train station, and went to go board a train... only to find out the station isn't a station: it's set dressing.

I know why they omitted the railroad, but it's still very disappointing. Then again, the aesthetics they used for their uneasy combination of Toon Town and Main Street might have resulted in a hideous abomination on rails. Maybe we were inadvertently spared that nightmare?

Ah, that is an excellent point that I had not thought of! Any time that I can be spared from tossing my cookies is always a good thing so maybe I should not be too hard on Shanghai Disneyland. :lol:
